As Long as They're Good-Looking, Morals Follow the Face — Now It's Your Turn
As Long as They’re Good-Looking, Morals Follow the Face — Now It’s Your Turn
Outside the corridor, a man and a woman walked over side by side, like a pair of immortal lovers.
The man wore a faint smile, and there was even a hint of surprise in his voice, as if he had accidentally interrupted everyone.
“Gu Changge!”
“Why are you here...”
The various sect-master-level figures who had been locked in battle were utterly shocked. Once they recovered, they all stared fixedly at him, their gazes filled with unprecedented wariness.
They had never imagined that at this critical moment, Gu Changge would suddenly appear, becoming the oriole waiting behind the mantis stalking the cicada.
That meant their entire battle just now had likely been witnessed by him from start to finish, yet he had delayed showing himself — all to wait for this very moment.
Thinking of this.
For a moment, everyone’s expressions grew grave, and they glanced somewhat uneasily behind Gu Changge.
Seeing that no other experts followed besides him, they breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Before this, they had still regarded Gu Changge as a mere junior of the younger generation.
But ever since witnessing with their own eyes, outside the underground palace, that peak Sacred Lord Realm expert being effortlessly suppressed and killed by him.
They had understood that Gu Changge had now come into his own, his strength immensely powerful, far beyond what any other young prodigy could compare to.
That terrifying Sword Qi just now had already explained everything, leaving them trembling with fear.
An ordinary Sacred Lord Realm being likely couldn’t withstand it at all and would be slain outright.
So they were all guarding against one another — anyone who had made it this far was no simple character.
In the blink of an eye, they understood that the current situation had fallen entirely into Gu Changge’s hands.
Not to mention the Saintess of Mortal Palace by Gu Changge’s side.
Although they had never witnessed her true strength, anyone who could stand beside Gu Changge couldn’t possibly be weak.
“Why can’t this junior be here?”
“As they say, treasures belong to the virtuous. In this junior’s view, this Godly Illusion Divinity Crystal... happens to share a fate with me.”
Gu Changge said with a smile, slowly walking into the great hall.
Wang Zijin followed at his side, her expression rather intrigued as she surveyed the surroundings.
She had no idea how Gu Changge had managed to find his way here.
No one else knew where the main tomb was, yet he alone seemed able to see through this place completely.
Every obstacle had been rendered meaningless.
This only deepened the curiosity in her heart.
“Gu Changge, don’t tell me you plan to swallow this treasure all by yourself?”
Hearing this, a sect master of a great sect wearing crimson robes, with even his eyebrows red, looked ugly and stared coldly at Gu Changge, his tone far from polite.
The other three great sect masters also wore vigilant expressions, staring at him, worried that Gu Changge might suddenly strike.
The golden-haired old woman, Jiang Luoshen, and the others were instead set aside by them for the moment.
In their eyes, Gu Changge’s threat far exceeded that of the golden-haired old woman and her group.
“Gu Changge...”
Jiang Luoshen looked at Gu Changge, her gaze filled with hatred, her jade hand clenched tight.
At this moment, she didn’t dare act rashly either, sensing Gu Changge’s aura locked onto her.
If she dared to move and seize that purple crystal-like substance, she would absolutely face a thunderous strike from Gu Changge.
Having witnessed Gu Changge’s terror, her heart couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
She would rather face four great sect masters than face Gu Changge.
As for how Gu Changge had found this place, that was no longer something she had the luxury to consider.
“Artifact Spirit, what do I do now? How did Gu Changge find this place...”
In Jiang Chen’s heart, he too was trembling, only able to pray that Gu Changge wouldn’t recognize him.
“I don’t know either.”
“Be careful. Whatever you do, don’t let Gu Changge notice anything unusual. That guy is too terrifying. If he recognizes you, neither of us will escape death today.”
The voice of the Celestial Boat of Creation’s Artifact Spirit also carried an irrepressible tremor.
“How did he track us here...”
Monk Pu Du also wore an extremely troubled expression, already beginning to consider his escape plan in his heart.
“This junior has taken a fancy to this item. Everyone, please leave.”
Hearing the question, Gu Changge didn’t answer, but instead smiled faintly, his gaze slowly sweeping across everyone.
Finally it landed on Jiang Luoshen’s face. Seeing her unnaturally avert her gaze, he then looked toward the Godly Illusion Divinity Crystal on the Platform.
The many Array Patterns on it had already been broken — one only needed to walk over to easily obtain the treasure.
To get Jiang Chen to break these Array Patterns for him, he had waited off to the side for quite some time.
Otherwise, he would have shown himself long ago.
“Containing the cultivation Source of a Prime Ancestor of the Godly Illusion Clan, this item can indeed help someone ascend to the heavens in a single step.”
Gu Changge praised softly, as if admiring his own possession, completely disregarding everyone nearby.
Hearing this, whether it was the members of the Godly Illusion Clan or the four great sect masters, all their faces turned ugly.
Gu Changge was completely disregarding them, already treating that Godly Illusion Divinity Crystal as his own possession.
What arrogance and dominance this was.
“Gu Changge, how about we split this item equally? Otherwise, you alone can’t contend against the four of us.”
“One shouldn’t be too greedy in life.”
“Otherwise, you’ll end up with nothing.”
However, one great sect master still took a deep breath and spoke up, thinking of a compromise. His eyes swirled with purple light, carrying a powerful Dao rhythm, natural and unified.
He wore a Grand Luo Daoist Robe, and in his hand he gripped a Dao Sword, its edge astonishing, as if it could pierce through the void and strike at any moment.
Hearing these words, the other three great sect masters’ eyes flickered slightly, but they said nothing, clearly acquiescing to this proposal.
If Gu Changge also wanted a share of the spoils, they could naturally agree.
Splitting five ways versus four ways — there wasn’t much difference.
Unless absolutely necessary, they didn’t want to fight Gu Changge either.
“Are we not even in their eyes? They’re already discussing how to split it...”
Seeing this scene, Jiang Luoshen’s expression grew even uglier. Whether it was the four great sect masters or Gu Changge, none of them took her seriously.
One had to know, this was the tomb of her Godly Illusion Clan’s Prime Ancestor!
At this moment, her slender hand was already tightly gripping a sheet of glittering golden paper, ready to be activated at any time.
This was one of her trump cards.
Unless it was a critical moment, she truly didn’t want to use it.
“No, have you all misunderstood something? This junior’s meaning is...”
“Does this matter really need this junior to repeat himself?”
Gu Changge shook his head slightly, then seemed about to walk toward that Platform.
His face still wore that casual expression, as if he were speaking of some trivial matter.
“Gu Changge, don’t be too greedy, or you’ll end up with nothing in a moment.”
One hot-tempered sect master clearly hadn’t expected Gu Changge to say such a thing, anger surfacing on his face.
The next moment, a weapon wreathed in lightning appeared in his palm, crackling and popping, its radiance bursting forth, causing the void to tremble continuously as if about to explode.
From this display, it was clear that at the first sign of disagreement, he was ready to strike.
At this point, with the Godly Illusion Divinity Crystal within arm’s reach, how could they possibly give up easily?
The others’ brows were also tightly furrowed. At this stage, who would willingly give up?
However, Gu Changge’s tone remained completely unchanged. “This junior has never liked repeating himself a third time.”
“If you all don’t wish to die, then please leave this place.”
Though his words were gentle and refined, his bearing divine and immortal-like, everyone felt a terrifying killing intent rushing toward them, and their expressions shifted slightly.
“Gu Changge, we are your elders. Don’t be too arrogant.”
At this, one of the more mild-tempered great sect masters also found his expression turning ugly.
“Calling you seniors is giving you face. Do you still not understand?”
“If you wish to die, then I can naturally oblige you.”
Gu Changge shook his head slightly, his words still without a ripple.
As his words fell, he directly slammed a palm forward. Terrifying five-colored divine light interwove through the void, carrying a momentum as surging as mountains and seas, crashing down to suppress and kill the great sect master who had just spoken.
Boom!
That great sect master’s expression changed. He hadn’t expected Gu Changge to suddenly strike. He unleashed a terrifying Sword Qi that collided with Gu Changge’s palm, attempting to withstand it.
But the next moment, his expression changed again, in disbelief.
“Impossible...”
Pu!
As this palm descended, it was like a five-colored divine mountain condensed into form, majestic and vast, heavy as Chaos Energy. The Sword Qi shattered.
Immediately after, his arms snapped with a crack, bones collapsing, emitting horrifying sounds.
Then, his entire body let out a muffled groan, blood spraying out as he was sent flying backward, instantly grievously wounded!
“How is this possible...”
“The gap is actually this huge?”
The other three great sect masters watched this scene, utterly shocked, never imagining this battle would end so quickly.
Gu Changge’s strength was truly unfathomable!
Jiang Luoshen also stared blankly at Gu Changge, trembling at his power, a scalp-numbing sensation spreading through her divine soul.
“I gave you a path to live, and you refused to take it.”
“Now that you’re courting death, don’t blame me.”
Gu Changge walked forward unhurriedly, his voice calm, yet at this moment it seemed exceptionally cold.
Wang Zijin, standing at the corridor entrance, hadn’t followed Gu Changge over. Watching his actions now, she only felt her heart beating fast.
In her view, there was nothing wrong with Gu Changge’s actions.
Though he was domineering and cold, hadn’t Gu Changge already said he had taken a fancy to the Godly Illusion Divinity Crystal?
Yet these great sect masters didn’t know what was good for them and still refused to give up.
Knowing full well they were no match for Gu Changge, yet still being so foolish.
Wasn’t this courting death?
Sure enough, as long as they’re good-looking, morals follow the face.
And while Wang Zijin was lost in thought, in the void, Gu Changge’s palm had yet to dissipate, still descending.
Then it closed, seizing the great sect master who had struck at him, instantly producing tooth-aching sounds of bones cracking.
“You...”
“Ah...”
“Gu Changge, let me go...!”
“I don’t want the Godly Illusion Divinity Crystal anymore!”
This sect master’s face was filled with terror, simply unable to believe all this. With his power, he had no ability whatsoever to fight back before Gu Changge.
It was as if he were facing a true Sacred Emperor Realm ancestor!
Everyone’s expressions changed drastically once more, somewhat horrified.
A great sect master — that was an existence who commanded an entire great sect, who had cultivated for at least tens of thousands of years, who in his youth had been a prodigy of his region, with heaven-defying battle prowess, immensely powerful.
Yet now, he was like an ant, gripped in Gu Changge’s hand, able to be crushed at any moment.
It had to be said, the shock this scene caused was truly immense, making them tremble uncontrollably, their scalps numb, deeply terrified.
“Is that so?”
“Let you go? That works too. It’s just that I gave you a path to live just now — a pity you didn’t cherish it.”
Gu Changge shook his head slightly, his tone seeming to carry a hint of helpless regret.
The next moment, amid that man’s despairing and horrified expression, the five-colored giant hand condensed in the void closed shut.
With a pu, blood mist burst apart — body and soul both annihilated.
“You actually killed Sect Master Qi Yang...”
Watching this scene, the remaining three great sect masters’ faces changed dramatically, turning somewhat pale, their voices trembling, all of them unable to stop feelings of regret from rising.
“Don’t rush. You’ll all be joining him soon.”
Gu Changge looked at them, his expression unchanged, as if he had just done some trivial little thing.
“Not good. We attack together, or none of us will be his match.”
The sect master wearing the Grand Luo Daoist Robe couldn’t help but shout lowly.
At the same time, he activated the Dao Sword in his hand, like a heaven-piercing Sword Qi that could destroy heaven and earth, containing destructive divine might, slashing toward Gu Changge.
The other two weren’t fools either. They quickly reacted, swiftly bringing out their respective artifacts, displaying powerful techniques, attacking toward Gu Changge.
For a moment, brilliant radiance erupted here, lightning flashed, chains of rules snapped apart like thunderbolts of the Dao, as if the void itself would be destroyed.
But the next moment, Gu Changge’s expression remained calm. He merely waved his hand casually, his sword fingers releasing a dazzling sword gleam that tore through the void, carrying boundless peerless sharpness.
Pu!
With a soft sound, that man screamed miserably as his arm went flying, blood splattering.
Even the weapon in his hand exploded at the first instant, shattering on the spot, his entire body becoming a mass of blood mist.
His divine soul, despairing and terrified, attempted to pierce through the void and flee this place.
But Gu Changge’s gaze swept over, seemingly transforming into a dazzling heavenly sword, ringing with zhengzheng sounds, instantly slashing him apart within the void — body and soul both annihilated, following in the footsteps of the one before.
Within this sword gleam was contained boundless offensive power.
It not only contained the ultimate Golden Force, but also the ultimate power of rule evolution — truly nothing it could not break.
Let alone them at peak Sacred Lord Realm cultivation, even a true Sacred Emperor Realm being here would have to respond with utmost caution.
In the blink of an eye, another great sect master had perished, without the slightest power to resist.
Even Wang Zijin felt slightly alarmed.
She felt that with her strength fully unleashed, she could at most handle one great sect master.
There was no way she could slaughter one as effortlessly as Gu Changge.
This could only mean the strength Gu Changge had hidden was even more terrifying, simply unfathomable.
By now, just how much of his strength had Gu Changge revealed?
The golden-haired old woman and the others also wore shocked and horrified expressions, completely unprepared for the fact that four great sect masters couldn’t muster even a shred of resistance against Gu Changge — it was entirely one-sided crushing.
“Princess, what do we do? Do we still want this Ancestor’s Divinity Crystal? If we flee for our lives now, this old one still has a fair degree of confidence.”
“Since Gu Changge has already slaughtered these people here, that means he definitely won’t leave us alive.”
The golden-haired old woman’s expression was grave, her wariness at its peak, transmitting her voice to Jiang Luoshen to ask.
In Jiang Luoshen’s slender hand, she still gripped that golden paper tightly.
Hearing these words, her heart was filled with unwillingness.
After all her painstaking efforts, she had gained nothing in the end, and now she actually had to flee in wretched disarray?
How could someone as proud as her accept this?
But if she still insisted on taking that Godly Illusion Divinity Crystal now, she would very likely lose her life here.
“Artifact Spirit, let’s escape like we did last time. Gu Changge is really too strong — even great sect masters can’t last a single exchange in his hands.”
Jiang Chen’s lips were pale as he gazed at the white-robed man standing in the void, his entire body seemingly shrouded in endless divine light, striving to keep his voice from trembling.
He finally knew just how terrifying his enemy was. This was a despair-inducing chasm of power.
Killing great sect masters like slaughtering dogs!
At this moment, he even began to entertain the thought of giving up his revenge.
“In a moment, Jiang Luoshen will inevitably clash with Gu Changge. I’ll take the chance to trigger the Array Patterns here and make this palace collapse. You run east without looking back — there’s a hidden passage there that can take you out of this place, leading to the outside world.”
“This is all I can do now. After that, I’ll fall into slumber. What comes next is up to you.”
The voice of the Celestial Boat of Creation’s Artifact Spirit was heavier than ever before.
Jiang Chen nodded, his palms covered in cold sweat.
“Even together we’re no match for him. Let’s run.”
At this moment, the other two great sect masters’ faces were pale, unable to believe all this. Fear had already risen in their hearts — they knew they were no match for Gu Changge.
Boom!
They activated secret techniques, burning their Blood Essence, their entire bodies glowing, their auras reaching the peak of their lifetimes at this moment — but only to flee for their lives.
“Think you can escape?”
Gu Changge’s voice still held not the slightest fluctuation.
His sleeves rose, and the void around him instantly became viscous, as if every inch was packed with the weight of hundreds of millions of jun.
Immediately after, a vast force slammed out, like a heaven-shaking tidal wave. With a dong, it pierced through this place, overturning heaven and earth.
Pu...
Accompanied by blood light that made one shudder, the two great sect masters’ bodies collapsed, exploding directly, dying miserably on the spot, body and soul both annihilated — utterly unable to escape Gu Changge’s palm.
This scene made the golden-haired old woman, who had been preparing to flee with Jiang Luoshen, turn cold in the face, unable to suppress a shiver.
“Now it’s your turn.”
Gu Changge lightly shook his sleeves, as if brushing away bloodstains that had never touched them.
He looked toward Jiang Luoshen and the others, his tone still without a ripple, as if he had just crushed a few ants.
